Our Take

Let's dive headfirst into Modest Mouse's latest offering, "The Golden Casket." This album is a swirling kaleidoscope of sound, blending indie rock with psychedelic influences in a way that only Modest Mouse can pull off. With their signature quirky lyrics and off-kilter melodies, the band takes us on a wild ride through a dreamlike landscape that is equal parts whimsical and raw.

From the opening track, "Fuck Your Acid Trip," it's clear that Modest Mouse haven't lost their edge. The frenetic energy and unpredictable shifts in tempo keep listeners on their toes, never quite knowing what to expect next. Tracks like "We Are Between" and "Wooden Soldiers" showcase the band's ability to craft catchy hooks that worm their way into your brain and refuse to leave.

One of the standout moments on the album is "Lace Your Shoes," a haunting ballad that builds to a crescendo of crashing drums and wailing guitars. Lead singer Isaac Brock's distinctive voice carries the emotional weight of the song, drawing listeners in with its raw authenticity.

Overall, "The Golden Casket" is a bold and ambitious addition to Modest Mouse's discography. It's a testament to the band's enduring creativity and willingness to push boundaries, delivering a mesmerising listening experience that is sure to captivate fans old and new alike. Don't sleep on this one - Modest Mouse are back and better than ever.
